Nebraska: Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste Management 
Program Revision

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Nebraska has applied to the EPA for final authorization of the 
changes to its hazardous waste program under the Resource Conservation 
and Recovery Act. The EPA proposes to grant final authorization to 
Nebraska. In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal 
Register, the EPA is authorizing the changes by an immediate final 
rule. The EPA did not make a proposal prior to the immediate final rule 
because we believe this action is not controversial and do not expect 
comments that oppose it. We have explained the reasons for this 
authorization in the preamble to the immediate final rule. Unless we 
receive written comments which oppose this authorization during the 
comment period, the immediate final rule will become effective on the 
date it establishes, and we will not take further action on this 
proposal. If we receive comments that oppose this action, we will 
withdraw the immediate final rule and it will not take effect. We will 
then respond to public comments in a later final rule based on this 
proposal. You may not have another opportunity for comment. If you want 
to comment on this action, you must do so at this time.

DATES: Send your written comments by November 3, 2004.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to Lisa Haugen, Environmental 
Protection Agency, ARTD/RESP, 901 North 5th Street, Kansas City, Kansas 
66101. Comments may also be submitted electronically or through hand 
delivery/courier; please follow the detailed instructions in the 
ADDRESSES section of the direct final rule which is located in the 
rules section of this Federal Register.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lisa V. Haugen at the above address, 
by phone at (913) 551-7877, or by e-mail at [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: For additional information, please see the 
immediate final rule published in the ``Rules and Regulations'' section 
of this Federal Register.

    Dated: September 2, 2004.

Acting Regional Administrator, Region 7.
